Have you ever come face-to-face with a photograph of a family member on Scran? Perhaps a parent, a grandparent, a great-great aunty, a long lost distant cousin…?<\/h2>\n

\"perth<\/a>We know some of you have. At a Scran event last year we met a lady who identified one of the children featured in this photograph of Northern District School in Perth<\/a>\u00a01952 as her cousin!<\/p>\n

We’ve also met:\u00a0a student who found a photograph of her father, a former football player, featured in our Scotsman collections;\u00a0a librarian who found a photograph of her fisherman great-grandfather pictured in his native north-east;\u00a0a lady\u00a0who found a photograph of\u00a0herself\u00a0in the school netball team back in the 1960s.<\/p>\n

If you’ve found any of your ancestors – or even yourself – on Scran, we’d love to hear from you. If you’d like to share your family story on Scranalogue, please comment below or get in touch with us directly at scran@scran.ac.uk<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Remember to identify the Scran image that you have a family connection with. \u00a0You can do this by telling us its URL \u00a0(its\u00a0weblink) or by its USI number (that’s the small number that appears under each thumbnail image in search results and begins\u00a0000- and ends -C). Don’t forget to explain\u00a0your connection to the image – just\u00a0a few sentences will do. We’d also love to know your name and where you come from, but you can remain anonymous if you wish.<\/p>\n
